Can someone please tell me what this hard top piece is?

Just pull the carpet away from the side and then you can get to the bolt.
That is an alignment rivet. It just fits in a mating hole.
Is this on a 4dr? There are 2 additional bolts in the front under the freedom top panels, IIRC

No its a 2 door. I pulled carpet back. It's still gonna be tough to get to. Does it come from the factory like this?
The one I'm pointing to in the picture is the only bolt that has to come out. I have four alignment rivets and my two door 2016, and as I said they just fit in an existing hole, no backing nuts
Clarification: there are six of these bolts total. I was referring to what needed to be removed in the picture.
I don't see the video my friendIf the top has never been off, it may stick a bit. Maybe this video will help (speed it up).

Almost makes me want to put a soft top on my JKU. Almost. I had soft tops on both of my TJ's and found the top was up more than down. There are some features on the top in the video that I didn't have on my TJ top that would have made life a little easier. Christmas is coming, maybe I'll ask Santa 
for one.
for one.
Anyone try this product? Wonder if it actually saves time and has one less tool in the trunk compartment.
These are a convenience for people that may take their top off away from home. I personally use a power tool when taking the top off and never do it at some random place. I've heard that the wing nuts work fine and would probably be faster than using a hand wrench. I'm curious if they actually fit in the front locations under the freedom panel. I can't look at spacing as I have the summer soft top on, if they don't, kinda a waste of money.
